I	A
	-
O freedom power of life and light	B
Sole nurse of truth and glory	C
Bright dweller on the rocky cliff	D
Lone wanderer on the sea	C
Where'er the sunbeam slumbers bright	B
On snow clad mountains hoary	C
Wherever flies the veering skiff	D
O'er waves that breathe of thee	C
Be thou the guide of all my thought	E
The source of all my being	F
The genius of my waking mind	G
The spirit of my dreams	H
To me thy magic spell be taught	E
The captive spirit freeing	F
To wander with the ocean wind	G
Where'er thy beacon beams	H

II	A
	-
O sweet it were in magic bark	I
On one loved breast reclining	F
To sail around the varied world	J
To every blooming shore	K
And oft the gathering storm to mark	I
Its lurid folds combining	F
And safely ride with sails unfurled	J
Amid the tempest's roar	K
And see the mighty breakers rave	L
On cliff and sand and shingle	M
And hear with long re echoing shock	N
The caverned steeps reply	A
And while the storm cloud and the wave	L
In darkness seemed to mingle	M
To skim beside the surf swept rock	N
And glide uninjured by	A
	-

III	A
	-
And when the summer seas were calm	O
And summer skies were smiling	F
And evening came with clouds of gold	P
To gild the western wave	L
And gentle airs and dews of balm	O
The pensive mind beguiling	F
Should call the Ocean Swain to fold	P
His sea flocks in the cave	L
Unearthly music's tenderest spell	Q
With gentlest breezes blending	F
And waters softly rippling near	R
The prow's light course along	S
Should flow from Triton's winding shell	Q
Through ocean's depths ascending	F
From where it charmed the Nereid's ear	T
Her coral bowers among	U
	-
	-
IV	L
	-
How sweet where eastern Nature smiles	V
With swift and mazy motion	W
Before the odour breathing breeze	X
Of dewy morn to glide	Y
Or 'mid the thousand emerald isles	V
That gem the southern ocean	W
Where fruits and flowers from loveliest trees	X
O'erhang the slumbering tide	Y
Or up some western stream to sail	Z
To where its myriad fountains	A2
Roll down their everlasting rills	A2
From many a cloud capped height	B
Till mingling in some nameless vale	Z
'Mid forest cinctured mountains	A2
The river cataract shakes the hills	A2
With vast and volumed might	B
	-
	-
V	L
	-
The poison trees their leaves should shed	B2
The yellow snake should perish	C2
The beasts of blood should crouch and cower	D2
Where'er that vessel past	E2
All plagues of fens and vapours bred	B2
That tropic fervors cherish	C2
Should fly before its healing power	D2
Like mists before the blast	E2
Where'er its keel the strand imprest	E2
The young fruit's ripening cluster	D2
The bird's free song its touch should greet	E2
The opening flower's perfume	F2
The streams zalong the green earth's breast	E2
Should roll in purer lustre	D2
And love should heighten every sweet	E2
And brighten every bloom	F2
	-
	-
VI	L
	-
And Freedom thy meridian blaze	A2
Should chase the clouds that lower	D2
Wherever mental twilight dim	G2
Obscures Truth's vestal flame	H2
Wherever Fraud and Slavery raise	A2
The throne of blood stained Power	D2
Wherever Fear and Ignorance hymn	G2
Some fabled daemon's name	H2
The bard where torrents thunder down	I2
Beside thy burning altar	D2
Should kindle as in days of old	E2
The mind's ethereal fire	D2
Ere yet beneath a tyrant's frown	I2
The Muse's voice could falter	D2
Or Flattery strung with chords of gold	E2
The minstrel's venal Iyre	D2
